" TO TUE Alt " The auspicious hour has arrived, that en a bl es ,the !Henn' of truth t o justly appreciate the . 'injuries and oppression that have been heaped upon the charaelet of his Royal Highness the Duke of York. The base and unprecedented secret motives, so suc cessfully praaised, to degrade his Royal Highness, and also to destroy the It ippiness and repose of the Royal Family, are now. Completely developed, by the late trials and publications that have succeeded events that are disgraceful to the annals of Britain, and tnut refle& an odium upon the age that has to lerated proceedings that will ever be recolleCted ith Contemptuous pity and regret ! ! ! When we reflect wiiat must have been the sufferings of an aged and excellent M.march, in ex periencing a diminution of. his farmly's dignity, by the disatieeted and mei cenary proceedings of a party; who had neither principle . , trutii,,norlononr, for their support, we are amazed that noble Characteris tic Of -Englislnen should 'have been subverted by the intrigue of taiion. • " We must at this moment sincerery regret the hasty, yet dignified . resignation of the Duke of. )(cirk, which we are now sensible did not proceed from a' self' conviction Or error, but from a disposi tion to comply With the pualic mind, which_ was l tit that-period led away by - the t(itieiit" of Wejudice then must \ nefariously raised against his Roya) High ness. Royal From a thorough convietlon of the i n j ur i es his Highness has suffered in his character and reputation, we anticipate the w:shes of the Military in the restoration of his Royal Highness to that situation his conduct so dignified, e , inced in the, regold.tions and .benevolence he most -liberally and impartially extended to all ranks in the army. " The arrtij, is therefore requested to afford their signature to a Petition, intended to be, presented to The King's Most Excellent Majesty, to hUmbly ins treat his Majesty will be graciously pleased to re store his .110 al Highness Fredl-riak Duke of York to the office of Commander in Chief, &c. &c.

The Theatrical Company are gone to Gu:Word. The Earl of MARCH, the gallant heir apparent of his Grace the Duke of RICHMOND, who has just Completed his iglh Year, has relinquished all the luxury and splendour of the Irish Court to .share' the glory, the danger, and the hardships of the "Bri tish, camp in Portugal, According . to , letters re ci•ived from his' Lordship at Dirblin Castle, •he was present with Lord 'MILLINGTON, ph the heights overlooking the Coa, during the late action between the British advanced guard; undeteGenerai PRAU - FUND, and the superior French force which attack ed it. Having used t e 'utmost. expedition,. Lord• MARCH arrived at the army just,in tint; to be a spectator of the most glee - item si3ht (as Ire writes) that his imagination could. conceive ; aSmall Bri tish and Portuguese force, from their diseipline and • steady courage,; apparently invincible, slowly and regularly l retiring to a bridge whi:h contain-- .nieated with their m in army, and at 'ate same time repelling the repeated attacks Of art almost overwhelming force of the enemy. The bridge, once gained, they there made their stand, and the utmost and long continued etforts . of the enemy were insuffi cient to remove them.

May his. example find many imitators - among the British youth of trii exalted'rank. _ The following very extraordinary affair occurred at. Brighton, on . Friday : The Serjcaut-Major of the South Gloucester Militia had behaved so exceeding• ly abrupt and improper to Lient. WILSON, in front of theregiment on the parade, on Friday, that an order of Confinement 'to his own room was, .the •consee quence. The Serjeant-Major .has apartments ad joining the Guatd-houge ; and - as Liebe WILSON was on duty thst day, . he soon after discovered the Serjeant-Major, regardless of the. oreler . that had been issued, walking bacl“Cardi and forwards, and partially 'stripped, in the street, in front of the Guard-house.. The Lieutenant pointed out to him the telly of his c ondua, and insisted-upon his retir ing to his Worn, but which only induced an insulting and abusive reply. Lieut. .BUBB, of the same re giment, at this time joined Lieutenant W. and, be mg provoked at the continued insolence of the other, called out the guard then on.duty, 'consisting of a• Serjeantetwo Corporals, and eighteen Privates, and ordered them to take the offender into custody. But this mandate, though supported by Lieutenant W. strange, to say 1 the guard refused to obey, and the astonishment of the Officers - mly . 4e. better _con.. ceived than . e xp resse d. A prompt and vigorous decision of nation on their parts now became ab-; solutely requisite. Lieutenant Bu 88, therefore, drew his sword, and threatened to r un the Serjeant- Majors through the body, if he did notitlutternistant retire, not to his own worn, but to the Guard-house, as his latter conaua did not entitle him to su c h an indulgence. This resolute demeanour somewhat *Ounted the Serjeant-Major; and as Lieutenant W. se . zed. him by the collar at the same instant, to the Guard-housu they hurried him without further cere. This had scarcely been. effected, when Captain SMITH, the Captain of the day, arrived, who, on learning what had happened, sent for the Adjutant, and ordered him to atnroint a fresh guard, and, take the former into custody, which was ac cordingly done, with the exception of the Serjeant only, tt ho was not considered so mater i a ll y td b lame- Serjeant-Major, two Corp‘rals, and eighteen privates, are therefore at this time under co'nfine went, , and a regular examination into their conduct will lake place. . .
